    I one time saw a kitten fall of the bottom of a van while driving. I pulled over to pick up the kitten. It lived with minor injury. Kept him. He lived for 14 years.

    I liked your channel before just for the Toyota info, but this vid seals the deal! Possums, that story was just extra credit. You did a better job than I would have, so there is always that. Sounds like for the possum lovers you had to put them on your x-mas list……you are a better man than me. The owners of that car were to blame, not you.

    I will never complain about having to replace the cabin air filters in my Tundra or my wife’s Highlander ever again.
    The field mice seek out the warmth in the winter and will nest right on top of the filter.
    I couldn’t figure out why my 22 Tundra HVAC was whistling in certain modes until I found the cabin filter had been chewed through in a few places. The 3 rd gen Tundras use a stiffer filter media than my other Toyotas, so any holes will cause a whistle. They have also gotten into one of the engine air intake boxes and chewed the insulating lining in the box.
    The mice will create a nest under the aluminum intake manifold atop the engine of my 03 Tundra (2UZ) most winters. I have to use a flexible grabber and compressed air to get it all out or risk a fire.

    Lol, I know exactly what you mean. I used to know a couple of people who drove their cars that were filled with a load of gravel, trash inside their cars with smell of hydrocarbon gas. Yet, they didn't seem be bothered with those things. There's one thing I wouldn't do is driving my car with all four windows wide open, especially, on highways. Driver's license renewal should require health inspection certificate of drivers. Also, would auto mechanics need to wear Hazmat suits at work on a regular basis, not just for Covid?

    Dear Sir really enjoying your channel. Could you comment on the 3 inch TRD Tundra lift offered from Toyota for the 3rd Gen? Do you think its a good product or would you recommned an aftermarket kit?
    Thank you

    • @TheYotaChannel
      @TheYotaChannel  5 місяців тому +1

      Thank you. I believe the 3 inch is perfect. We have no issues with them so far. As far as aftermarket lift kits, we have seen issues with them, such as pulling and noise concern. Im especially not a fan of the lift kits that require you to cut the frame just so you can mount the front differential. But that's just me. There are ppl out there who love them. Overall, there are no issues with the factory 3-inch lift.

      Yes, I've seen some over the years. But it was due to rust and corrosion. It has been a while. That was around the time Toyota had a customer support program out for customers who were experiencing the issue. Maybe 6-7 years ago.

      @@TheYotaChannel Yeah unfortunately for a lot of people these days there is no common sense you have to go all the way to one side or another when in reality most people sit in the middle. Like the Possums don't get to just claim the car as their home and the owner doesn't just have to just hold that L like tuff luck. It's also not like you threw them in a meat grinder or the trash either. They'll find a new spot hopefully not in someone car to nest and if not that's survival of the fittest unfortunately. It is what it is sometimes.
